MAINTENANCE
General Maintenance
Fuel Filter/Fuel Lines
See your Polaris dealer for replacement of the in-tank fuel filter (1)
every 1000 miles (or annually).
Inspect the fuel lines regularly for signs of
deterioration or damage. Always check fuel
line condition after periods of storage.
Normal deterioration from weather and fuel
compounds may occur. Replace worn or
damaged fuel lines promptly.
CAUTION
Kinking the fuel lines or using a pliers or similar tools to remove
fuel lines may cause damage to the lines. If a fuel line has been
damaged or kinked, replace it promptly.
Oil Filter
The oil filter should be changed annually or every 1000 miles (1600
km). Inspect oil line condition at 1000 miles (1600 km). Polaris oil
filters are specially designed for use on Polaris products. We strongly
recommend the use of only Polaris replacement parts.
EDGE models use an oil filter that’s built into the oil sending unit
located in the bottom of the oil tank. After changing the oil filter, bleed
the oil injection system of all trapped air. See your dealer for
instructions, or have your dealer perform the filter change and bleeding
operation for you.
See page 50 for oil recommendations.
